An authenticated attacker can exploit this OS command injection vulnerability in FortiWeb’s management interface by submitting specially crafted HTTP requests. The vulnerability arises because the application improperly neutralizes special elements within user-supplied input. When malicious commands are injected into specific parameters of an HTTP request, the application fails to sanitize them before incorporating the input into a system command that is executed by the underlying operating system. This allows the attacker to break out of the intended command context and execute arbitrary operating system commands with the privileges of the vulnerable application process, leading to a full compromise of the host system.
